Valuation & returns analysis

A valuation is only useful if it survives the questions. We build it the way the investment committee will rebuild it.

Method

How the work is done.

DCF, LBO, comparables and returns waterfalls, built the way the other side builds them.

  1. 01

    Multi-method

    DCF, trading comparables and precedent transactions, triangulated rather than cherry-picked.

  2. 02

    Run off the live model

    The valuation draws from the operating model, so a change in assumptions flows through instead of being restated by hand.

  3. 03

    Returns from the investor's seat

    IRR, money multiple, LBO structures and waterfalls — what the money does for them, not only for you.

  4. 04

    Working shown

    Comparable selection, adjustments and discount rate build are all documented and defensible.
